re:Please insert the disk: 1

Or if you change the VolumeLabel in the Media table of your installation to
something that matches the CD Volume Label, it should work.

There are two ways to change your Media table:

(1) From the InstallShield IDE: Go to the Release Wizard, and in the Media
options dialog, select "custom", the next dialog will give you an option to
change the volume lable.

(2) Open your built .msi installation using Orca (supplied with the Windows
Installer SDK, which you can download from Microsoft) and manually change
the entry in the Media table from "Disk1" to whatever you want.

Please insert the disk: 1

I have been given the task of fixing an InstallShield Express installation that
doesn't work on Win98. Since I will have to test the new installation, I want
to have a clean win98 system on a removable drive (SCSI Orb 2.2GB).

When I attempt to install the client's software on the Orb drive with win98, I
receive the error message "Please insert the disk: 1" and the computer tries to
access the floppy drive. That's the end of the road for me.

I tried to install InstallShield Express 3.03 on the same system, with the same
result. Now I am just trying to install ISE 3.03.

I can install ISE 3.03 on a fixed harddrive on the same computer under win98.

I have a dual-channel scsi bus. I've tried both channels, variations on which
scsi devices are running, many bios configurations, etc. Nothing changes the
ultimate "Please insert the disk: 1" message.

Is this a problem/restriction about installing ISE on a removable drive?
Is this a problem with win98?
Is there anything I can do to make this work?

Re: Please insert the disk: 1

This could to be a problem with Windows Installer. To be sure though I would
like log file of the install. To do this enter the following commanline

Setup.exe /v"/lv C:\test.log"

This will create a log file which will help us get to the root of the issue.
Once you have this file, please email it to me. Contacted Offline.
